Earlier this season, I shared a bit about Megan and John’s story through their engagement session. I still just feel so much appreciation for their love when I think back to that first meeting we had and John teared up when Megan told how he proposed. The soft side is unexpected in an athletic, successful business man such as John. Both Megan and John are surprisingly well rounded. Intelligent and successful in their careers, yet casual, laid back and unpretentious. Easy going, yet exceptionally focused on the things that matter.

The wedding day had a few surprises, one of them being the last minute change of the reception from the outside terrace to the indoor ballroom because of the stormy weather. I never heard one complaint from them. Megan was one of the most relaxed brides I can remember, always focused on people. I have just loved getting to know you guys. Thank you so much for being so wonderful to work with.

Lana and Ryan are easy to be around, so kind and loving with each other, and I am inspired by all that they are about. We tromped around their River Market neighborhood at some of their favorite spots. I feel privileged to be a part of their upcoming wedding!

gotta give props to Brandon Parigo for this next angle- he saw it first

More fun the week of Cinco de Mayo….we hosted a party with our friends the Clouds. I’ll start off with a picture that my good friend Kelly Jackson took. It was so cold outside that night that the mariachis had to take the show into the living room to protect their stringed instruments. Everyone was hanging out in the kitchen as people do, and a few friends and I were enjoying a solo performance from these great guys, when Mark came and asked me to dance. He made me very happy…

Kelsey told me on her wedding day that she remembers seeing Marcus on the dance floor at a high school party and thinking “THAT guys looks like a lot of fun”. Fun is the perfect word for these two. Each time I see them, they leave me smiling. I’m sure that their friends rely on them to be the life of any party. To top that, the Walsh and Perry families have wonderful and rare closeness. All things that made this a fantastic first wedding of the season for me. Enjoy a glimpse…
